Henry

“Is he still out there?” Henry asked.

Sawyer was sitting in the window seat of the master bedroom with his laptop on his lap. His fingers were flying over the keys. His final project was due that night and he was almost finished.

“Probably,” Sawyer said. He shook his head and turned back to his notes. He made a couple other adjustments, then closed the file. “Done. I think. Probably.”

“Just send it already,” Henry said. His voice might have had a tiny whine but he didn’t care. Sawyer had locked them in the master bedroom after Draco had gone all caveman and started carrying them everywhere. Henry’d thought it was kind of cute, except that Draco had kept making him eat stuff and his stomach had actually pooched out from all the food. Then Draco had laid his head on the bump like it was precious. It had been a bit over the top.

He’d done the same thing to Sawyer, but instead of just taking it, Sawyer had put his foot down. He’d pushed Draco out of the door, then shut it in his face. He’d then informed Eduard and Andvari that he had two days of work to do and that it was their job to keep Draco distracted until he was finished.

Luckily, Henry had some work to do as well. He’d been reading as many books as he could get his hands on, trying to get a better understanding of his magic and how he was supposed to use it to keep the Chosen One safe. Now that he understood he could take some of the magic from the other guys to add layers of protection to the wards, he wanted to do it. But he figured there must be other abilities he’d yet to figure out, especially ones involving the other elements.

His magic was related to air, and he had a solid familiarity with earth magic, as shifters were all connected to that element. Both Draco and Eduard were fire elements, which he was somewhat familiar with because of his Uncle Meshaq. He’d never met someone whose magic was from the water element. Needless to say, he had a lot to learn. He wouldn’t be a guardian who just did wards and had visions. Right?

“And sent.” Sawyer closed the laptop and gulped. “Oh, God. It’s really done.”

“Yeah. Now can we please leave the room?”

Sawyer laughed and jumped onto the bed where Henry had sprawled after he finished the last chapter in one of his books. He straddled Henry’s hips and gave him a wicked grin. “You sure you want to?”

Henry ran his hands up Sawyer’s thighs with a grin of his own. “Now you get frisky.”

“Now I’m horny. Should I release the kraken?”

“If that’s code for let Draco in here to fuck us stupid, then yes, release away!”

Sawyer laughed and jumped to the side before rolling off the bed. Draco was sitting on the floor in the hallway, his face a huge scowling pout.

“Want to punish me for being a bad, bad boy?” Sawyer teased.

Henry cackled.

Draco’s scowl deepened. “Maybe,” he said.

“My project has been submitted. Come celebrate with us.”

Draco climbed to his feet, his scowl steady on his face. “You shouldn’t have locked me out.”

“You were going to keep me sitting on your dick for days at the rate we were headed, and as much fun as that sounds, I really didn’t want to miss my final. You know how important it is to me.”

“I know.”

“So, admit that you were being a little over the top so I had to do it to get my work done. And the moment I finished, I came to find you.”

“That helps.”

“Good.” Sawyer smiled up at him, then wrapped his arms around Draco.

“You really thought I was going to keep my dick in you for days?”

Sawyer arched a brow and Henry choked back a laugh. “Look me in the eye and tell me that wasn’t what you were planning.”

Draco looked away.

“Exactly. But now my project is done and Henry’s finished his magic book so we’re both free and clear for you to stick your dick back where you want it.”

“You’re delightful today,” Draco snarked.
